I'm here at the Lucasfilm compound
-
at the Presidio in San Francisco.
-
This is a place where they literally manufacture
-
magic and wonder.
-
As you can see there's a statue of Yoda right here.
-
Yoda is 900 years old.
-
So as you can see, he has a bladder control problem.
-
Pee, I must.
-
(Star Wars orchestral music)
-
(audience cheering)
-
This is John Singh.
-
Hi John, how are you?
-
Hi, nice to meet you.
-
And you work here at Lucasfilm?
-
I do, welcome.
-
Here, we have some of the original costumes from the movies.
-
This is incredible.
-
Now this, I don't know a lot about Star Wars.
-
This is Darth Vader, is that correct?
-
This is Darth Vader, yes.
-
Looks like there's a retractable door here.
-
(audience laughing)
-
It does look like that, yeah.
-
You can just push,
-
I think it's this button and then
-
(imitating mechanical whirring)
-
(loud exhaling whoosh)
-
Yes, much better.
-
This is Jordan Schlansky.
-
Hi. He's a producer on our show.
-
Hi, Jordan. It's a pleasure.
-
How are you? Good to see you.
-
Jordan is our resident Star Wars expert.
-
Is that fair to say, Jordan?
-
Yes, sir.
-
Jordan, you have some problems
-
with this Darth Vader costume?
-
Well, I just noticed that John had said
-
that it was an original
-
and then I also noticed that the chest plate
-
doesn't have the Hebrew lettering
-
in these three areas that the original has,
-
which led me to believe that maybe it actually is a replica.
-
It probably is.
-
I see.
-
So earlier, when you said you think this is the original,
-
you were lying to me.
-
I was misinformed.
-
[Male Voiceover] Liar.
-
There's Darth Maul's lightsaber,
-
a double-bladed lightsaber.
-
And Darth Maul actually specializes in musical theater.
-
Is that right?
-
I'm gonna wow ya!
-
This is, he's a bounty hunter, I think I know that.
-
Yeah, very good, yeah.
-
And he has some braids from Jedi.
-
Oh, what's that all about? What is that?
-
Yeah, these are the braids from the Jedi that he's killed.
-
Jordan, do you know any inaccuracies
-
with the Boba Fett costume?
-
Well, John, the one thing that you mentioned that,
-
again I question, was you would call these Jedi braids.
-
I'd always heard of them referred to as Wookiee braids.
-
[Male Voiceover] Liar.
-
This is one of the operations that was used
-
in a shot for his chest.
-
Has he heard of Nivea cream?
-
Look at his arm.
-
For four million light-years, it's a long trip.
-
Okay, you just said four million light-years.
-
Yep.
-
Jordan, would you step in please?
-
How you doing?
-
Yeah, what is it?
-
It's actually six million light-years
-
from home E.T. traveled.
-
[Male Voiceover] Sad.
-
(audience laughing)
-
The original models and props,
-
even though this is from Dragon Slayer.
-
One of the other cool things we have
-
is one of the original whips used from Indiana Jones.
-
(suspenseful music)
-
(whip cracking)
-
Do you mind if I,
-
is it okay if I-- Sure, go ahead.
-
Yeah, look it. Oh, wow.
-
Look at that.
-
(whip cracking)
-
Whoa, did you hear that?
-
Look at that.
-
(whip cracking)
-
Ow, I just whipped myself in the back.
-
One of the original Imperial Walkers.
-
Oh, cool. Yeah.
-
These are so cool. Yeah.
-
Look at that.
-
I remember those walk.
-
Yeah, from The Empire Strikes Back.
-
Yeah.
-
(lasers shooting)
-
(jet whooshing)
-
I love the way these things were sort of just like--
-
Yeah.
-
(audience jeering)
-
I think this goes here.
-
No, you have the wrong one.
-
Problem is this part needs to go in here
-
to get that tab in.
-
I don't get this.
-
Pretty much there.
-
(audience laughing)
-
This is Industrial Light & Magic.
-
This is Industrial Light & Magic.
-
They're pretty much the biggest visual effects company
-
in the entertainment industry.
-
You mind if we come in for a sec?
-
No, don't mind at all.
-
This is our nerd corner here.
-
Nerd corner.
-
That's what we call it.
-
You said it, I didn't.
-
Hi, what is your name?
-
My name's Charles.
-
Hey Charles, really good to meet you.
-
What is this fan for?
-
This is,
-
this is so you never have to go outside
-
to experience a cool breeze. That's right.
-
It simulates an outdoor experience.
-
Simulates what it will be like
-
if you took 10 steps and walked outside.
-
Absolutely.
-
Kevin, is that correct? Kevin, yeah you're right.
-
I want to ask you quickly
-
about your professional wrestling figures.
-
Okay, yeah. What's that all about?
-
Basically, my folks just wanted them
-
to get out of the house.
-
[Kevin] Big John Studd. [Conan] Yes.
-
[Kevin] King Kong Bundy. [Conan] Yes.
-
And I was like, I'll take these.
-
I know exactly where they'll fit in great.
-
Were they worried that you have a vast collection
-
of men without shirts?
-
(audience laughing)
-
This is Maia, is that right?
-
Maia? Yes, Maia.
-
Which, Maia?
-
Kayser.
-
Maia Kayser.
-
Yeah. Let me ask you something.
-
What is the male to female ratio here?
-
I've walked around, the ratio is I think 800 to 1.
-
(audience laughing)
-
I just wanted you to meet my friend.
-
This is my friend Charles.
-
Hey. Hey.
-
I thought you two should meet.
-
Hey. Hi.
-
Hi. How're you doing?
-
(romantic music)
-
This is Mike Sanders, is that right?
-
That's correct.
-
What we're gonna do is turn this place into a virtual studio
-
and they're gonna alter the performance
-
of some digital creatures.
-
And to do that I need to get into a special...
-
It's a
-
humbling lycra suit.
-
Why you say humbling?
-
Well, we're gonna find out.
-
Perfect.
-
(dramatic trombone music)
-
This was a mistake.
-
We're gonna plug you right into
-
the first digital character we've got here.
-
It's a demo character we call The Schwa.
-
The Schwa. The Schwa.
-
Oh, here he is. Yep.
-
This is The Schwa right here.
-
So I am now The Schwa.
-
[Mike] Yep, exactly.
-
Is The Schwa been in any Star Wars movies?
-
No.
-
Okay, this is where The Schwa gets the phone call
-
that he's not good enough for Star Wars.
-
He's been cut.
-
(disguising voice) Wha- what?
-
No!
-
That's crazy!
-
I'm perfect for it.
-
What do you mean no?
-
What?
-
They think I have an eating disorder?
-
No, I'm fine.
-
I eat, I'm just,
-
I totally am right for that par-- oh, forget it.
-
Ugh.
-
Ah.
-
No, it's not right.
-
I'm calling back.
-
You got, get me a mirror.
-
What do you mean no?
-
Oh.
-
I'm calling again.
-
How about one of these characters from
-
the Star Wars episodes?
-
Great, an actual Star Wars character.
-
Yep. Cool, let's do that.
-
Oh cool, C-3PO.
-
Even I know C-3PO.
-
Rockettes C-3PO.
-
Is there a Star Wars film,
-
I haven't seen them all,
-
where C-3PO turns into a real badass?
-
No, I haven't seen that yet.
-
This is herniated disc C-3PO right here.
-
Too many martini C-3PO.
-
I'm okay.
-
Chewbacca's saying, you are right man,
-
you really,
-
you had a lot to drink.
-
No!
-
I'm okay.
-
I'm okay.
-
(vomiting sound)
-
(coughing)
-
Let's put me on my set.
-
Let's see what that looks like.
-
Do C-3PO on your set.
-
(drumming music)
-
(audience cheering and clapping)
-
(drum beat)
-
You IML people are fantastic.
-
I thank you.
-
But before I leave this incredible place
-
there's something I must do.
-
Excuse me.
-
(dramatic suspenseful music)
-
Kevin.
-
Charles.
-
Come with me.
-
We're going outside.
-
(audience cheering and clapping)
